I found my self very engaged in reading the Dance Dance Revolution reading by Cathy Park Hong. I really was intrigued by the changing from poem to prose and I though that this really moved along the story the the author was telling but kept the overall feel of the work to be poem like. I was very interested in this story and loved the blending of cultures that and languages that are used and thought that this served to enhance the poems and add mystery to the whole story.
In regards to the story being told by the author I would like to know more about what is happening. I assumed that what we were assigned to read for class was only a few selected sections from a larger work but from what I got the story is about a women who is searching for some information on her past and is attempting to do so by meeting with the tour guide who has a revolutionary past. I would very much like to look through this entire work it really sparked my interest.
Also I have been working on the 42 to 84 lines of poetry that are due next week and have been having trouble coming up with ideas. I know that we can use multiple poems to reach the assigned amount of lines but I am not sure if all of the poems we write have to be related to each other. I have really enjoyed the writing assignments for this class and an excited to see what i is like to have a full class workshop.
